Modification engineering

and supply of equipment

We work closely with our customers in order to fi nd the best solution.

custom made equipment

Our Special Projects range and experience is various and includes a broad range of working steel constructions with drive systems.

Hydraulic slip way for the back of Havila Troll. Launching and retrieval of lifeboats and.

other small vessels

Many existing ways of doing operations can be improved by developing new and innovative equipment.

Everybody in our company share the needed passion for engineering, creativity and challenges to provide our clients with the best possible equipment in the market.

VNE deliver one-off and custom-built solutions and products which we believe add economical, technical, environmental and safety value to the market’s existing technologies. We take care of the total process from idea and concept development to delivery, start-up and training.

Through the years we have delivered a range of products that just started

out as an idea or a problem for a customer and turned out to be complete turnkey products.By working closely with the customer through the entire process from consept to delivery we ensure that they get what they want.

Developing innovative solutions and new techniques is a continuous process for VNE and is fundamental to everything we do. Extensive experience within Custom Made equipment based on steel structures and various system designs makes us able to solve the most complex challenges.

By using as much standard components as possible we reduce the cost and make the service and maintenance easier.

Examples of equipment VNE has delivered:

Pipe fl ange welding machine at Frank Mohn.

Plant for cleaning and upgrading of used drillpipes for Frank Mohn. The plant transports cleanes, sorts, and upgrades used drill pipes.

Skidding systems

VNE can design and deliver various hydraulic skidding systems for transport of heavy loads. Previous experience covers several deliveries to both onshore and offshore installations. We can design both “Gripper Jack” skidding systems and “Claw” type skidding systems in order to move heavy loads along beams with high positioning accuracy. VNE skidding systems are designed to adapt different dimensions of flange width and flange thickness on the skidding beams and with capacities for loads up to 500 Tonnes

Handling systems

VNE has extensive experience in designing custom made material handling system and different kind of production lines. We plan the entire process in order to make it as efficient as possible and design the handling systems according to the production flow and layout.

They can typically include:

various transportation, scanning and sorting, milling, grinding, welding, cleaning, painting etc.

Self propelled transportation unit for risers delivered to CCB.

Bulk loading and hose handling systemsEffective loading of fluids and dry bulk materials between supply vessels and fixed or floating production (drilling) units are necessary to maintain continuous operations.

VNE`s solutions ensures safe and reliable hose handling even during the most harsh and extreme offshore conditions and gives many advantages compared to traditional methods:

Increased safety for equipment and personnel

Less time needed for the operation

Reduced risk of pollution

Increased lifespan for the hoses

Reduced need for operating personnel

Easy access for maintenance VNE bulk loading stations are certified according to prevailing rules and regulations and can be delivered in various types and dimensions.

Our customers can have standard solutions with small adjustments or tailormade equipment according to their specification. We can deliver the equipment including HPU or it can be connected to a ring line onboard the platform.

A typical station would be fitted with reels for 4” and 5” soft wall hoses with floating element and for mediums like Diesel, Potable water, Brine, Cement, Bentonite/Barite, mud etc.
